First: Apologies for my absence. I actually was unable to recover the password for this account for a while, and couldn't be buggered to jump through hoops at the time, so I decided to rework my DA. Basically a month ago I created another account. More on that in another journal.
Secondly: The requests for the group
If I've already accepted your request and you're still interested, then it is my intention at this time to reconvene work. IE: start from scratch on your image. This was a horribly unprofessional occurrence, and I don't ever plan on letting it happen again.
Third: Why did this happen?
Well, in the last six months a lot of things have gone on. I moved from Eastern Nebraska to El Paso TX, my husband got in a series of car accidents, I've been going through some bouts of serious depression... and on top of that I have a toddler! It all compounded and DA unfortunately fell through the cracks.
I should have kept better communication, and for that I do apologize.
If anyone is interested in still following my art, this is the account I moved to:

Our-Dreams-Come-True is still interested in having me as a contributor, note me, and I'll put up my request guidelines and formally join the group again. My life has evened out a TON, and I'd like a bit of experience before I take on commissions, which has always been my goal as an artist.
